Apparently Auctiva changed their pricing yet again.  We may have to start an internal wager board here in the office on what the next change may be….

This past week, Vendio attended the ECMTA/PESA conference in Atlanta. Each time I attend one of these events, I’m left with a stack of business cards, a ton of follow up, and a long lasting impression of the people I’ve met. Many of you have never attended an event or had the opportunity to meet [...]

We had a great time at eCommerce Summit 2009 in Atlanta. Michael Levit, VP of Marketing and Business Development spoke to a standing room only crowd about cost effective ways to sell across multiple channels. Michael also participated in an educational and fun, “Mad eCommerce” panel.

What we enjoyed most, however, were the great conversations with all types of sellers who were looking for ways to improve their businesses. We also enjoyed chatting with eCommerce experts like John Lawson aka “ColderIce” & David White at eBay & Beyond Radio and more.

Many of you asked for us to post our presentation – so here it is!

Vendio is proud to sponsor the 2009 Spring eCommerce Summit in Atlanta hosted by eCommerce Merchants and Professional eBay Sellers Alliance (PESA).

When? June 3rd & 4th

Where? Atlanta, Georgia

Why? Get ready for two days of educational seminars dedicated to helping merchants improve their eCommerce strategies. The seminars alone are worth the $99 admission fee (cheapest we’ve seen for a conference of this caliber).

Plus, because the event is intimate, you’ll have a great time learning and networking with industry experts and peers such as John Lawson (ColderIce.com), Jay Berkowitz (10 Golden Rules), eBay Management, iContact and more.

Michael Levit, VP of Marketing & Business Development, will present on: “How to effective Sell on eBay, Amazon, Your Store and More”.

eCommerce Merchants has also put together a fun and information “Top 10″ list (David Letterman style) for why you should attend. Check it out.

Thanks to the 100+ ASD/AMD trade show folks who attended our early morning seminar on “Marketing Your Website on a Budget”. It’s always great speaking to a packed house and answering questions on ways to leverage online marketing vehicles to drive customer acquistion for free or almost free. It was also great to see the interest in the our new Vendio Platform and the 100% free store.

For those of you attending ASD/AMD and are not yet a part of Internet Merchants Association , I highly recommend using your pass and checking them out. IMA is a non-profit organization that offers resources to help you grow your business, networking opportunities, best practices and more. Learn more about IMA here.
